[It's been an awkward few weeks, truthfully... Karamatsu isn't quite sure how you're supposed to interact with your brother when you were sprawled on top of him and trying to vehemently deny feelings that actually exist, after overhearing him confess those same type of feelings for... the brother that had walked in on you.]

[It's a complicated situation, to say the least, but he's taking it in stride as best he can. (That's what a cool, calm, collected guy like him does, after all.)]

[He still hasn't quite figured out why Ichimatsu put on his clothes, either, but... there haven't been very many chances to ask, nor does he think it'd go over that well. He's still not sure why Ichimatsu keeps trying to throttle him all the time, even in the face of sincere support, but it's not like that's actually that unusual in terms of how he's treated...]

[Anyway, today's the day, probably! The rest of their brothers are out of the house, and Karamatsu feels as prepared as he ever will to go and try and talk to Ichimatsu... he really doesn't want this to ruin their relationship, he thought he'd been doing... an okay job, up until now, of not ruining it, all things considered...]

[So, upon peeking around the corner and seeing Ichimatsu looking... happy? with his cat, Karamatsu decides to enter the room, looking confident but not too flashy!! and give him a grin.]

Ichimatsu, my brother!

[... He pauses, unsure of what to say and follow up with...]

How are you?

[10/10!]

[Um.]

[Well.]

[It's impossible to be cool after that, probably, so he can be forgiven for his wide-eyed staring, blushing, and general look of complete and total shock. There are a lot of things he should say right now, and the first things, probably, should be something to reassure Ichimatsu that he didn't just do something life-ruining or anything that'll get him disowned... but, unfortunately, what actually comes out is --]

So you don't like Osomatsu?

[Karamatsu's question just makes him curl further into a ball, nearly duck his head between his knees, hands on his head. Sure, that's not an easy thing to respond to, but...god, what a question.]

[He lets out yet another frustrated sound, and god knows how many it's been during this conversation at this point. He doesn't have the patience to ask if Karamatsu was awake to hear that; obviously he was. He's too preoccupied being mortified and frustrated to be surprised by this fact.]

No! I wasn't... I said that as you, anyway.

[More reason to keep hiding.]

[Alright, well.]

[He can put together these two things, at least, and probably not ruin anything -- Ichimatsu not liking Osomatsu + Ichimatsu kissing him probably = Ichimatsu liking him, which... feels so improbable for a couple reasons, really, not the least of which is that Ichimatsu has never seemed to even be able to tolerate him, but...]

[Kissing your brother is a really, uh, brave thing to do, so it's hard to interpret this as a joke or anything...]

[This is his chance, though, seriously!! He can be really genuinely smooth and -- maybe not quite "seductive" but... He can do this, totally.]

Ichimatsu.

[Karamatsu moves over towards him, reaching up to pry Ichimatsu's hands away from his head, just so he can coax him into looking up at Karamatsu again -- he does this by tilting Ichimatsu's chin up with a finger, very suave.]

I don't like Osomatsu either, though.

[Which is probably... the weirdest thing you could say before doing this, but the entire situation is uncommon and a little messy anyway, so he thinks it's okay -- and even if it's not, maybe Ichimatsu will forgiven him, since he's getting a kiss out of it.]

[He really doesn't want to face Karamatsu after that, honestly, but the fact that he's coming closer rather than leaving should be a good sign, right? Or...the better sign, at least.]

[So he doesn't really fight when his brother moves his hands away, tilts his chin up, leans closer...]

[His eyes might go a little wide, realizing what this means, but he doesn't fight it. It's sort of a stark contrast to that feeling like he could start crying. But what is there to do but respond to it after he, sort of, started this anyway.]

[Later it will hit him what a strange line that is to lead up to a kiss, but his mind is a little preoccupied right now.]

[He's wanted to kiss Ichimatsu for -- a while. Actually getting to do that is more difficult than he thought, mostly because he keeps smiling and it's hard to do both at the same time! They're only trading a few small pecks, Karamatsu himself feels pretty hesitant, truthfully... not because he's unsure, it's just -- Ichimatsu is important, and he's the older brother here so he has to make sure he's taking care of him properly.]

[By the time he pulls away, he knows he's still quite red in the cheeks, but with any luck, Ichimatsu will be, too, and he'll feel better about it, then. But -- words. He needs those, needs to set at Ichimatsu at ease (and also handle this deftly in general), so. Another trademark smile it is.]

Don't worry about anything, brother. After all --

[Pause, for dramatic effect, and a fond look at Ichimatsu.]

-- I like you.

[There are a lot of ways he can think of to react to all this. There are a lot of implications to this and Ichimatsu doesn't know what they're going to do about those. He could point out that those are something to worry about, the fact that they do like each other is, in fact, something to worry about.]

[He still has it in him for that to cross his mind, but in the face of this, maybe not to actually act on those thoughts. Because on the other hand, how many brothers are put into this situation, take the risk he did, and get a reaction that is, for all intents and purposes, good?]

[His cheeks are red when Karamatsu pulls away, and his response to his brother is a bit grumbly as he struggles to really maintain eye contact.]

I...like you too.

[And then another quick peck on the lips.]

[That's okay, really. He's actually pretty confident that their other siblings would accept this, so long as they were both happy and safe -- they all value each other highly, so, surely as long as there's love and it's not harming anyone! That's how he'd feel, at least. Maybe that's slightly biased from having these feelings in the first place, but Karamatsu likes to think he'd be supportive even so.]

Haha, that explains so much, you know? You've been shy for so long, I understand now!

[This actually... makes the clothes incident more embarrassing, though, in hindsight... Maybe... Maybe Ichimatsu really did kind of sort of maybe not mind Karamatsu being over him like that? H-hm.]

Well. I'm relieved, I have to say!

[Slightly nervous laughter.]

[Ichimatsu has, well, quite a few insecurities that were laid bare by ESP Kitty. And maybe having his brothers know should actually be some consolation, but it isn't that easy; he's still not confident, or sure he's worth the effort. But Karamatsu is sitting here, making an effort, so that has to be worth something.]

If shy is how you want to look at it...

[Though he has to admit he feels a little shy now. But shy also sounds like a gross underestimate of the worry he felt.]

Well, you sound about as relieved as I feel...

[He can recognize the nervousness in that laugh. Just because the confession went over well doesn't mean they've worked out all the kinks, so to speak.]

[What's really remarkable about things is that Karamatsu wasn't even there to hear what ESP Kitty revealed himself -- of course he's heard some, maybe most, of it secondhand, but he missed Ichimatsu's own reactions and delivery. Most of his feelings and views on his younger brother come just from observing him on a daily basis and a staunch belief in the gentleness he sometimes shows. He's been enamored with that for a while, with the tiny smiles Ichimatsu makes.]

It explains why you always got mad at me and tried to beat me up! You were embarrassed, which is perfectly normal. That's so much better than you hating me!

[Speaking seriously, though, he hates the thought of Ichimatsu feeling ashamed of this all by himself for any length of time at all.]

So, I guess I'm relieved for more than one reason? My little brother doesn't hate me, but also... well. You know.

Maybe it does...

[Which is barely a confession to what Karamatsu's saying, but he seems to know he's right. Ichimatsu just leans against his brother a bit, since they're in this proximity anyway, feeling maybe a little bit unguarded with what they've learned about each other here.]

Hm. Yeah. I guess I know.

[A peck on the cheek this time, but a bit of a longer one. Maybe Karamatsu needs a little reassurance too.]
